Tubs,
That is just too dang simple.
I pondered this several times today as I worked on my advance plate, coils, etc.
The ah-ha came when I did a mock install of the plate in about 4 different orientations. Bottom line, the cam at the top of the crank is the maestro of the whole shooting match, right? It knows where the pistons are, so all else is moot? (Sorry about the mixed metaphors).
I think I get it, I was definitely making it harder than it is.
Thx!
Best Regards,
